Toyota Jerks/stalls

[goby]

i have a 1994 corolla AE 101 that recently developed a problem.......seems common with most japanese cars...when am in 1st gear n let go of the clutch it jerks...same thing happens in 2nd gear ...if i'm in 2nd gear and come to a stop and give it gas again it jerks alot before continuing to accelerrate....have changed the plugs,plug leads,air oil and fuel filters,cleaned the throttle body...cant think of anything else....n e clues....

That would be what is affectionately called clutch shudder. Happens when cold mostly? Not sure on a treatment. I think it's the pressure plate not releasing evenly when engaging the clutch. It usually "fixes" itself.
